TEXT No. 4

Dristwa nipatitam bhumau divas chyutam iva amara
Pranemu Pandava Bhismam sanugah saha chakrina


ENGLISH SYNONYMS

Dristwa—thus seeing, Nipatitam—lying down, Bhumau—on the ground, Divas—from the sky, Chyutam—fallen, Iva—like, Amara—demigod, Pranemu—bowed down, Pandava—the sons of Pandu, Bhismam—unto Bhisma, Sanugah—along with younger brothers, Saha—also with, Chakrina—the Lord (carrying the disc.)


TRANSLATION

Thus seeing him lying down on the ground as if one of the demigods has fallen down from the horizon, the Pandava King Yudhisthir along with younger brothers and Lord Krishna bowed down before him.


PURPORT

Lord Krishna was also an younger cousin brother of Maharaj Yudhisthir as well as the intimate friend of Arjuna although all the family members of the Pandava know Lord Krishna as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Lord although conscious of His Supreme position did always behave in humanly custom and as such He also bowed down before the lying Bhismadeva as if one of the younger brothers of King Yudhisthira.
